Additionally, the Flames have re-signed Assistant General Managers Craig Conroy and Brad Pascall. Conroy is entering his fourth season in his current role after serving four seasons as a Special Assistant to the General Manager. This will be Brad Pascall's fourth season as the Flames Assistant General Manager and the General Manager of the Flames AHL affiliate Stockton Heat.
The Flames also announced Derek MacKinnon as the Director of Pro Personnel; Rob Sumner and Fred Parker as Assistant Directors of Amateur Scouting working under Director of Amateur Scouting Tod Button; and Chris Snow changing titles to Director of Hockey Analysis.

Rob Sumner has worked as an amateur scout for Calgary since 2011.

Chris Snow has spent the previous six years as a member of the Flames hockey administration.
